Description

La présente invention se rapporte à une machine de distribution de produits alimentaires ou autres pour le bétail, comportant au moins une benne pour transporter les produits, un ventilateur d'éjection situé à une extrémité de la benne et au moins un tambour démêleur situé entre les produits et le ventilateur d'éjection, lesquels ventilateur d'éjection et tambour démêleur sont entraínés en rotation durant le travail à partir d'un boítier de distribution comportant au moins une sortie, à laquelle sont reliés des moyens de transmission pour entraíner le tambour démêleur.The present invention relates to a product dispensing machine food or other for livestock, with at least one grab for transport the products, an exhaust fan located at one end of the bucket and at least one unraveling drum located between the products and the fan which ejection fan and unraveling drum are driven in rotation during work from a distribution box comprising at least an output, to which are connected transmission means to drive the unraveling drum.

La benne peut recevoir des produits tels que du fourrage ou de la paille en vrac ou sous forme de balles. Durant le travail, ces produits sont démêlés et déchiquetés par le tambour démêleur. Ils passent ensuite au ventilateur qui les éjecte soit dans des auges s'il s'agit de fourrage, soit les répartit sur le sol lorsqu'il s'agit de paille destinée à constituer une litière pour le bétail.The bucket can receive products such as fodder or straw in loose or in the form of bales. During work, these products are untangled and shredded by the unraveling drum. They then pass to the fan which Ejects either into troughs if it is fodder, or distributes them on the ground when it is straw intended to constitute a litter for the cattle.

Sur une machine connue de ce genre, les moyens d'entraínement, notamment ceux qui assurent l'entraínement en rotation du ou des tambours démêleurs, ne permettent pas une parfaite adaptation de cet entraínement aux différentes conditions de travail imposées par la nature des produits à distribuer.On a known machine of this kind, the drive means, in particular those who ensure the rotational drive of the disentangling drum (s), do not not allow a perfect adaptation of this training to the different working conditions imposed by the nature of the products to be distributed.

La présente invention a pour but d'améliorer le fonctionnement de machines du type de celle citée dans l'introduction.The object of the present invention is to improve the operation of machines of the type cited in the introduction.

A cet effet, une importante caractéristique de l'invention consiste en ce que les moyens de transmission pour entraíner le ou les tambours démêleurs comprennent au moins une courroie de transmission à laquelle est associé un dispositif d'embrayage.To this end, an important characteristic of the invention consists in that the transmission means for driving the detangling drum or drums include at least one transmission belt with which is associated a clutch device.

Cet agencement permet à l'utilisateur de commander très facilement la mise en rotation ou l'arrêt du tambour démêleur. Au début du travail, il est ainsi possible d'entraíner en premier le ventilateur. de sorte qu'il atteigne la bonne vitesse de rotation et de n'entraíner le ou les tambours démêleurs que dans un deuxième temps au moyen de l'embrayage.This arrangement allows the user to easily control the setting rotating or stopping the unraveling drum. At the start of labor, it is thus possible drive the fan first. so that it reaches the right speed of rotation and to train the detangling drum (s) only in a second time by means of the clutch.

Par ailleurs, lorsqu'il y a un excès de charge sur le ou les tambours démêleurs, dû à la nature du produit, il peut se produire un glissement de la courroie sur la poulie. Les moyens d'entraínement ne subissent alors aucun dommage.Furthermore, when there is an excess load on the drum (s) detanglers, due to the nature of the product, there may be a slip of the belt on the pulley. The means of training then undergo no pity.

Selon d'autres caractéristiques de l'invention, le dispositif d'embrayage se compose notamment d'un tendeur. La position de ce tendeur peut être réglée au moyen d'un vérin hydraulique. Une tige d'actionnement munie d'un ressort de pression fait que le tendeur exerce une pression constante sur la courroie et peut rattraper l'allongement dû à l'usure de cette courroie. Cette pression est avantageusement réglable.According to other features of the invention, the clutch device is consists in particular of a tensioner. The position of this tensioner can be adjusted by means of a hydraulic cylinder. An actuating rod fitted with a spring pressure causes the tensioner to exert constant pressure on the belt and may catch up with the elongation due to wear of this belt. This pressure is advantageously adjustable.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la machine comporte un dispositif d'arrêt de l'entraínement d'un tapis de déplacement des produits dans la benne, lequel dispositif d'arrêt se situe dans la zone de déplacement du dispositif d'embrayage. Ce dernier actionne le dispositif d'arrêt de sorte que le tapis d'alimentation soit automatiquement arrêté lorsque la courroie d'entraínement est détendue et que la rotation du tambour démêleur est arrêtée. Les produits qui se situent dans la benne ne sont alors plus poussés vers le ou les tambours démêleurs. Cela évite une accumulation de produits qui pourrait provoquer un blocage dudit ou desdits tambours démêleurs lors de la reprise.According to another characteristic of the invention, the machine comprises a device for stopping the drive of a product movement conveyor in the bucket, which stop device is located in the area of movement of the device clutch. The latter actuates the stop device so that the mat feed is automatically stopped when the drive belt is relaxed and the rotation of the unraveling drum is stopped. Products that located in the bucket are no longer pushed towards the unraveling drum or drums. This avoids an accumulation of products which could cause a blockage of said or said disentangling drums during the recovery.

  • La figure 3 représente une vue de détail du dispositif d'embrayage en position de travail.
  • La figure 4 représente une vue de détail du dispositif d'embrayage en position de repos.
Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will emerge from the claims and from the description below of a non-limiting exemplary embodiment of the invention, with reference to the appended drawings in which:
  • Figure 1 shows a side view with a partial section of a machine according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 represents a detailed view of part of the transmission means.
  • Figure 3 shows a detailed view of the clutch device in the working position.
  • Figure 4 shows a detailed view of the clutch device in the rest position.

Telle qu'elle est représentée sur les figures 1 et 2, la machine selon l'invention comporte une benne (1) avec deux roues porteuses (2) et un timon (3) pour l'accrochage à un tracteur servant à animer la machine et à la déplacer. La benne (1) est avantageusement déplaçable en hauteur par rapport aux roues (2). Cela permet de l'abaisser jusqu'au sol lors de son chargement et de la soulever pour les déplacements.As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the machine according to the invention comprises a bucket (1) with two carrying wheels (2) and a drawbar (3) for attachment to a tractor used to animate and move the machine. The bucket (1) is advantageously movable in height relative to the wheels (2). This allows it to be lowered to the ground when loaded and lifted for travel.

Ladite benne (1) possède un fond (4) et deux parois latérales (5 et 6). Le côté arrière (7) permet le chargement des produits dans la benne (1). Il peut être fermé au moyen d'un panneau qui est fixé à un bras non représenté. Ce bras peut être articulé sur la benne (1) de manière à permettre de déplacer ledit panneau. Le côté avant de la benne (1) est constitué par un carter (8) dans lequel est logé un ventilateur (9). Ce carter (8) possède une ouverture (10) sur le côté orienté vers l'intérieur de la benne (1) et une sortie latérale (11).Said bucket (1) has a bottom (4) and two side walls (5 and 6). The side rear (7) allows the loading of products in the bucket (1). It can be closed by means of a panel which is fixed to an arm not shown. This arm can be articulated on the bucket (1) so as to allow the said panel to be moved. The side before the bucket (1) is constituted by a casing (8) in which is housed a fan (9). This casing (8) has an opening (10) on the side facing inside the bucket (1) and a side outlet (11).

Le ventilateur (9) est notamment constitué par un disque (12) muni de pales (13) et éventuellement de couteaux. Ce disque (12) est fixé sur un arbre (14) sensiblement horizontal qui permet de l'entraíner en rotation.The fan (9) is in particular constituted by a disc (12) provided with blades (13) and possibly knives. This disc (12) is fixed on a shaft (14) substantially horizontal which allows it to rotate.

Devant l'ouverture (10) du carter (8) est disposé un tambour démêleur (15). Celui-ci se situe ainsi entre les produits chargés dans la benne (1) et le ventilateur (9). Il s'étend entre les parois latérales (5 et 6) de la benne (1). Ses extrémités sont guidées dans des paliers desdites parois latérales (5 et 6) de manière à ce qu'il puisse tourner autour de son axe longitudinal. Ce tambour (15) est équipé de couteaux (16) ou d'organes similaires pour couper et démêler les produits. Ces couteaux (16) coopèrent avec des contre-couteaux (17) fixés sur le carter (8).Before the opening (10) of the casing (8) is arranged a unraveling drum (15). This is thus located between the products loaded in the bucket (1) and the fan (9). It extends between the side walls (5 and 6) of the bucket (1). Its ends are guided in bearings of said side walls (5 and 6) so that it can rotate around its longitudinal axis. This drum (15) is equipped with knives (16) or the like for cutting and disentangling products. These knives (16) cooperate with counter knives (17) fixed on the casing (8).

Un ou deux tambours démêleurs supplémentaires peuvent être disposés parallèlement au tambour (15) pour travailler sur une hauteur plus importante. Ces tambours démêleurs supplémentaires peuvent être entraínés en rotation à partir du tambour (15) précité par exemple au moyen de courroies ou de chaínes.One or two additional untangling drums can be arranged parallel to the drum (15) to work on a greater height. These additional detangler drums can be rotated from the drum (15) mentioned above for example by means of belts or chains.

Sur le fond (4) de la benne (1) est disposé un tapis (18) de déplacement des produits. Ce tapis (18) est constitué par une bande transporteuse qui passe sur des rouleaux (19) situés près des extrémités avant et arrière de la benne (1). Un de ces rouleaux (19) est entraíné en rotation de sorte qu'il anime le tapis (18) et lui fait amener les produits contenus dans la benne (1) au tambour démêleur (15). Cet entraínement d'un des rouleaux (19) est réalisé au moyen d'un moteur hydraulique qui est relié au circuit hydraulique du tracteur par l'intermédiaire de tuyaux. On the bottom (4) of the bucket (1) is disposed a mat (18) for moving the products. This mat (18) is constituted by a conveyor belt which passes over rollers (19) located near the front and rear ends of the bucket (1). A death rollers (19) is rotated so that it animates the carpet (18) and makes it bring the products contained in the bucket (1) to the unraveling drum (15). This drive of one of the rollers (19) is achieved by means of a hydraulic motor which is connected to the hydraulic system of the tractor via pipes.

A l'avant du carter (8) est disposé un boítier de distribution (20). Celui-ci comporte une entrée (21) qui peut être reliée à l'arbre de prise de force d'un tracteur à l'aide d'un arbre intermédiaire. Il comporte une première sortie (22) à laquelle sont reliés des moyens de transmission (23) pour entraíner le tambour démêleur (15) et une deuxième sortie (24) qui entraíne le ventilateur (9).At the front of the casing (8) is disposed a distribution box (20). This one has an inlet (21) which can be connected to the PTO shaft of a tractor using an intermediate shaft. It has a first outlet (22) at which are connected transmission means (23) to drive the drum unscrambler (15) and a second outlet (24) which drives the fan (9).

Les moyens de transmission (23) précités comprennent un arbre d'entraínement (25) et au moins une courroie de transmission (26) à laquelle est associé un dispositif d'embrayage (27). L'arbre d'entraínement (25) s'étend de la première sortie (22) jusqu'à la paroi latérale (6) de la benne (1). Il porte à son extrémité dépassant ladite paroi latérale (6) une poulie (28) pour la courroie de transmission (26) qui passe sur une deuxième poulie (29) qui est liée au tambour démêleur (15). Dans l'exemple représenté, la courroie (26) est trapézoïdale.The aforementioned transmission means (23) comprise a shaft drive (25) and at least one transmission belt (26) which is associated with a clutch device (27). The drive shaft (25) extends from the first outlet (22) to the side wall (6) of the bucket (1). He brings to his end beyond said side wall (6) a pulley (28) for the belt transmission (26) which passes over a second pulley (29) which is linked to the drum unscrambler (15). In the example shown, the belt (26) is trapezoidal.

Comme cela ressort notamment des figures 3 et 4, le dispositif d'embrayage (27) agit sur un ou plusieurs brins de la courroie (26). Il se compose d'un tendeur (30) qui est monté sur un axe de rotation (31) disposé sur un balancier (32) articulé sur un pivot (33) qui est solidaire de la paroi latérale (6) de la benne (1) ou d'un support rapporté sur ladite paroi (6). Ce balancier (32) se compose de deux parties (34 et 35) qui s'étendent sur des côtés opposés par rapport au pivot (33). La position dudit tendeur (30) par rapport à la courroie (26) peut être réglée au moyen d'un vérin hydraulique ou électrique (36) commandé depuis le tracteur. Dans l'exemple représenté, le vérin hydraulique (36) est, d'une part, monté sur un pivot (37) solidaire de la paroi latérale (6) et, d'autre part, articulé au moyen d'un axe (38) sur un levier (39) qui est lui-même articulé sur le pivot (33) du balancier (32). Ce dernier comporte une butée (40) pour le levier (39). Cette butée (40) est placée sur la partie (35) du balancier (32) qui, par rapport au pivot (33), s'étend à l'opposé de la partie (34) qui porte le tendeur (30). La distance de la butée (40) par rapport au pivot (33) est relativement faible de sorte qu'elle se situe dans le secteur de pivotement du levier (39) autour dudit pivot (33).As is apparent in particular from FIGS. 3 and 4, the clutch device (27) acts on one or more strands of the belt (26). It consists of a tensioner (30) which is mounted on an axis of rotation (31) disposed on an articulated balance (32) on a pivot (33) which is integral with the side wall (6) of the bucket (1) or a support attached to said wall (6). This balance (32) consists of two parts (34 and 35) which extend on opposite sides with respect to the pivot (33). The position of said tensioner (30) relative to the belt (26) can be adjusted by means of a hydraulic or electric cylinder (36) controlled from the tractor. In the example shown, the hydraulic cylinder (36) is, on the one hand, mounted on a pivot (37) integral with the side wall (6) and, on the other hand, articulated by means of an axis (38) on a lever (39) which is itself articulated on the pivot (33) of the balance (32). The latter includes a stop (40) for the lever (39). This stop (40) is placed on the part (35) of the balance (32) which, with respect to the pivot (33), extends opposite of the part (34) which carries the tensioner (30). The distance of the stop (40) from the pivot (33) is relatively small so that it is located in the sector of pivoting of the lever (39) around said pivot (33).

Le levier (39) porte entre le pivot (33) et l'axe d'articulation (38) du vérin hydraulique (36) une bague oscillante (41) à travers laquelle s'étend une tige d'actionnement (42). Une des extrémités de cette tige (42) est articulée sur le balancier (32) au moyen d'un axe (43) situé sur la partie (35) opposée à celle qui porte le tendeur (30). La deuxième extrémité de la tige d'actionnement (42) comporte un écrou d'arrêt (44). Entre l'écrou d'arrêt (44) et la bague oscillante (41) est disposé un ressort de pression (45). Ce ressort exerce constamment une poussée sur l'écrou d'arrêt (44) de la tige (42), de sorte que cette dernière tire sur le balancier (32) et le fait tourner autour du pivot (33) dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre. L'écrou (44) peut être déplacé pour modifier la poussée du ressort (45).The lever (39) carries between the pivot (33) and the hinge pin (38) of the jack hydraulic (36) an oscillating ring (41) through which a rod extends actuation (42). One end of this rod (42) is articulated on the balance (32) by means of an axis (43) located on the part (35) opposite to that which carries the tensioner (30). The second end of the actuating rod (42) includes a stop nut (44). Between the stop nut (44) and the oscillating ring (41) a pressure spring (45) is arranged. This spring constantly exerts a thrust on the stop nut (44) of the rod (42), so that the latter pulls on the pendulum (32) and rotates it around the pivot (33) clockwise watch. The nut (44) can be moved to modify the thrust of the spring (45).

La paroi latérale (6) de la benne (1) peut en sus porter un dispositif d'arrêt (46) hydraulique ou électrique de l'entraínement du tapis (18) qui déplace les produits dans la benne (1). Ce dispositif (46) se situe dans la zone de déplacement du levier (39) autour du pivot (33). Il comporte un poussoir (47) qui est actionné par ledit levier (39). Ce poussoir (47) coupe automatiquement l'entraínement du tapis (18) lorsqu'il est relâché et que la courroie (26) est détendue (figure 4). Il rétablit ledit entraínement dès qu'il est actionné par le levier (39) lorsque celui-ci est déplacé pour tendre la courroie (26).The side wall (6) of the bucket (1) can additionally carry a stop device (46) hydraulic or electric drive belt (18) which moves the products in the bucket (1). This device (46) is located in the displacement zone of the lever (39) around the pivot (33). It comprises a pusher (47) which is actuated by said lever (39). This pusher (47) automatically cuts the drive of the mat (18) when it is released and the belt (26) is relaxed (Figure 4). he restores said drive as soon as it is actuated by the lever (39) when the latter is moved to tension the belt (26).

Au travail, la benne (1) peut être chargée de fourrage ou de paille en vrac ou sous forme de balles ou même de blocs. Ensuite la machine est amenée sur le lieu de distribution au moyen du tracteur. L'entrée (21) du boítier de distribution (20) peut alors être mise en rotation à partir de l'arbre de prise de force du tracteur. La première et la deuxième sorties (22 et 24) dudit boítier (20) sont alors entraínées en rotation. La deuxième sortie (24) transmet le mouvement au ventilateur (9) de sorte qu'il tourne sur son arbre (14). L'arbre (25) est entraíné en rotation par la première sortie (22) sans que dans un premier temps le mouvement ne soit transmis au tambour démêleur (15) par la courroie (26) qui est détendue.At work, the bucket (1) can be loaded with fodder or loose straw or in the form of balls or even blocks. Then the machine is brought to the place distribution using the tractor. The inlet (21) of the distribution box (20) can then be rotated from the tractor PTO shaft. The first and second outlets (22 and 24) of said housing (20) are then driven in rotation. The second outlet (24) transmits the movement to the fan (9) of so that it turns on its shaft (14). The shaft (25) is rotated by the first exit (22) without the movement being initially transmitted to the unraveling drum (15) by the belt (26) which is relaxed.

Dès que la vitesse de rotation normale du ventilateur (9) est atteinte, l'utilisateur commande le dispositif d'embrayage (27) de manière à faire tourner le tambour démêleur (15). Pour cela, il actionne le vérin hydraulique (36) afin qu'il se rétracte. Celui-ci tire sur le levier (39) et le fait tourner autour du pivot (33). Ledit levier (39) comprime le ressort (45) par l'intermédiaire de la bague oscillante (41). Ce ressort (45) exerce une pression sur la tige d'actionnement (42) qui tire sur le balancier (32) et le fait tourner autour du pivot (33), de sorte que le tendeur (30) soit pressé contre la courroie (26). Cette dernière est alors tendue et entraíne la poulie (29) qui est solidaire du tambour démêleur (15), par exemple dans le sens de la flèche (F). La mise en rotation de ce tambour (15) s'effectue d'une manière progressive. La position décrite ci-dessus est représentée sur la figure 3.As soon as the normal fan speed (9) is reached, the user controls the clutch device (27) so as to rotate the unraveling drum (15). For this, it actuates the hydraulic cylinder (36) so that it retracts. This pulls on the lever (39) and rotates it around the pivot (33). Said lever (39) compresses the spring (45) via the oscillating ring (41). This spring (45) exerts pressure on the actuating rod (42) which pulls on the pendulum (32) and turns it around the pivot (33), so that the tensioner (30) either pressed against the belt (26). The latter is then stretched and causes the pulley (29) which is integral with the unraveling drum (15), for example in the direction arrow (F). The rotation of this drum (15) is carried out in a way progressive. The position described above is shown in Figure 3.

Ledit tambour (15) démêle ainsi les produits contenus dans la benne (1) et les fait passer, en un flux relativement régulier, au ventilateur (9). Dans cette position du dispositif d'embrayage (27), le levier (39) presse sur le poussoir (47) du dispositif d'arrêt (46) de sorte que le tapis (18) soit entraíné. Le côté de ce tapis (18) qui est en contact avec les produits se déplace alors en direction du tambour démêleur (15) et lui amène lesdits produits.Said drum (15) thus untangles the products contained in the bucket (1) and the passes, in a relatively regular flow, to the fan (9). In this position of the clutch device (27), the lever (39) presses on the pusher (47) of the stop device (46) so that the mat (18) is driven. The side of this carpet (18) which is in contact with the products then moves in the direction of the drum unraveler (15) and brings him said products.

Lorsqu'un paquet de fourrage particulièrement compact provoque une surcharge au niveau du tambour démêleur (15), la courroie (26) peut glisser sur la poulie (29). De ce fait, l'arbre de transmission (25) et le boítier (20) ne sont pas soumis à des excès de charge qui pourraient occasionner des ruptures.When a particularly compact packet of forage causes overload on the unraveling drum (15), the belt (26) can slide on the pulley (29). Therefore, the transmission shaft (25) and the housing (20) are not subject to excess load which could cause ruptures.

Les produits qui parviennent au ventilateur (9) sont éjectés latéralement par ses pales (13). Ils peuvent alors être dirigés vers une auge lorsqu'il s'agit de fourrage ou vers la litière lorsqu'il s'agit de paille.The products which reach the fan (9) are ejected laterally by its blades (13). They can then be directed to a trough when it comes to fodder or to the litter when it is straw.

Durant le travail, la position du levier (39) par rapport à la butée (40) du balancier (32) permet de contrôler l'allongement de la courroie (26). Lorsque ladite butée (40) rencontre le levier (39) par suite de la pression exercée par le ressort (45) sur la tige d'actionnement (42), la courroie (26) est trop allongée. Dans ce cas il y a lieu de la remplacer afin que le dispositif fonctionne à nouveau correctement.During work, the position of the lever (39) relative to the stop (40) of the balance (32) allows to control the elongation of the belt (26). When said stop (40) meets the lever (39) due to the pressure exerted by the spring (45) on the actuating rod (42), the belt (26) is too elongated. In that case it should be replaced in order for the device to function properly again.

Pour arrêter l'entraínement du tambour démêleur (15), il suffit de détendre la courroie (26) comme cela est représenté sur la figure 4. Pour cela, le vérin hydraulique (36) est actionné afin qu'il s'allonge. Le levier (39) tourne alors sur le pivot (33) et relâche le ressort (45). En sus, il rencontre la butée (40) et entraíne le balancier (32) autour du pivot (33). Celui-ci ramène le tendeur (30) dans une position où il n'a pratiquement plus d'influence sur la courroie (26). Cette dernière n'entraíne alors plus la poulie (29) du tambour démêleur (15). De plus, durant le déplacement du levier (39) celui-ci libère le poussoir (47) du dispositif d'arrêt (46). L'entraínement du tapis de déplacement (18) dans la benne (1) est alors automatiquement stoppé.To stop the entanglement drum drive (15), simply relax the belt (26) as shown in Figure 4. For this, the cylinder hydraulic (36) is actuated so that it lengthens. The lever (39) then turns on the pivot (33) and releases the spring (45). In addition, it meets the stop (40) and drives the pendulum (32) around the pivot (33). This brings the tensioner (30) into a position where it has practically no influence on the belt (26). This last then no longer drives the pulley (29) of the unraveling drum (15). In addition, during the movement of the lever (39), this releases the pusher (47) from the stop device (46). The drive of the movement belt (18) in the bucket (1) is then automatically stopped.

Il est bien évident que l'invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation décrit ci-dessus et représenté sur les dessins annexés. Des modifications restent possibles, notamment en ce qui concerne la constitution ou le nombre des divers éléments ou par substitution d'équivalents techniques, sans pour autant sortir du domaine de protection tel que défini dans les revendications.It is obvious that the invention is not limited to the embodiment described above and shown in the accompanying drawings. Changes remain possible, particularly with regard to the constitution or number of the various elements or by substitution of technical equivalents, without departing from the protective field as defined in the claims.
